Cats show signs of stress every day

Cats are territorial animals. They need a place of their own where they can retreat and rest. When that place is missing, stress sets in.

17%

Of households have reported urinary problems in their cat

A quiet, safe corner of their own helps a cat feel secure at home, and can help prevent it from developing illnesses.

7days

To feel at ease

Studies show that stress settles faster when a cat has a hiding place.

Why choose Touma?

  • A rope your cat’s instincts recognise To the touch, their paw pads mistake it for tree bark.
  • Their scent stays on the rope Natural cotton is porous, so it keeps their scent instead of letting it fade like slick synthetic fabrics.
  • Every scratch makes it more theirs The more they use it, the more it smells of them and the more at home they feel. Where other beds just wear out, this one settles in.
  • Their whole territory in one spot They scratch the edge, sleep inside and play with the rope ball, without leaving their corner.
  • Made to last The hand-braided rope firms up with use and holds its shape over time, so you won’t need to replace it.

Help them feel safe and look after their wellbeing

Many indoor cats lack a place they feel is truly theirs, and that can cause territorial stress. Stress is one of the main risk factors for urinary problems, and researchers are also studying its link with kidney health. The hard part? Cats hide discomfort very well, so problems are often noticed late. A nest that is theirs alone is a simple way to help them feel secure.

Does your cat have a place just for them?

Cats need to scratch, and that’s completely normal. What few people know is that when they scratch, they also leave their scent behind to mark their territory and feel secure. If everything your cat has at home is synthetic, there may be nowhere to leave that scent. And without a territory of their own, a cat may never feel truly secure.

« It’s brilliant! Exactly like the photo, and my cats love it. They fell asleep in it in under 20 minutes and love chasing the ball. »

« I’m not always optimistic about products that claim my cats will love them. In this case, I took it out of the packaging and the cats immediately started lying on it and using it as a scratching post. It’s really remarkable how much they love it. »

« My very fussy, older cat, who doesn’t play with anything I buy her, absolutely LOVED her basket as soon as I set it up! She did exactly what you said she would: sniffed it, scratched it and rubbed her scent on it, then climbed straight in and curled up cosily. She’s been in it every day since, several times a day. I bought two, but my other cat showed no interest, so my fussy old girl has claimed both! »

« Good quality material. Add some catnip or treats to encourage kittens to go in it. »

« Charlie loves his basket, especially when it’s in a warm patch of sunshine! ❤️🥰❤️ »

« Comfortable, cool, good quality, exactly as described. I really liked it. 👍🏼 »

« The size is perfect for my 8 kg cat. I love it! »

« My cat jumped straight into it when I showed it to her. Whenever she needs a good scratch, she dives right in. Thank you so much! »

Questions before you buy

Does it help file my cat's claws?

Cats scratch to file their claws, stretch and mark their territory. The thick braided cotton rope gives them a firm surface of their own to do it on, which can take some of the pressure off your sofa.

What if my cat doesn't use it?

Most cats need a few days to adopt something new. Place it near their favourite spot, leave a blanket that smells of them inside, and try a little catnip or a few treats to tempt them in. If it still does not suit your cat, you can return it within 30 days.

Can it help an anxious cat?

Cats are territorial and feel safer with a quiet place of their own to retreat to. The high sides of the nest make a cosy, enclosed spot where your cat can rest undisturbed.

What is it made of?

Thick natural cotton cord, braided round after round into a firm basket and finished with a small brown label and a knotted rope toy.

Is it too hot in summer?

It is made from natural cotton rope, and you can adjust it to the season: add a cotton cushion when it gets cold, and swap in a bamboo mat when the weather heats up.

Is it suitable for kittens, older cats or several cats?

Yes. Choose the size to suit your cat: S is 35 cm across, M 40 cm and L 46 cm. Kittens may need a little catnip or a treat to find their way in, older cats like it placed on the floor in a quiet, easy-to-reach spot, and if you have several cats, our 2 and 3 Touma bundles give each one a nest of their own.
